SJUR, Lovespeake – Me In The Middle
(Video)

“Colaborative work that can positively affect every listener. It demonstrates the truth that no progress can be achieved without effort, persistence and also patience. Inspirational singing, which motivates you to pursue the divine.”

If there’s one word that captures the essence of “Me in The Middle” it has to be the word motivation, and this music video sums it all up for us visually. We find SJUR amidst snow covered mountains hiking to the top with his DJ set, whilst Nordic gymnast champion Odin Kalvø tries to master a new tricky choreography. Trying to show the viewers different forms of achievement, SJUR hopes this will make you motivated enough to go that extra mile. Or try that acrobatic flip. The video is directed by Peter Bruteig.

Due to the pandemic the video shoot was postponed again and again and again. And then again. Initially the team wanted to feature a professional swimmer, but due to restrictions this turned out to be impossible. So, when going a second round on what else could be fun to involve gymnastics ended up being an easy choice as it’s a sport SJUR has been dabbling with himself. He has personally felt how the motivation and self-esteem can vary within a field like this which made him personally invested in this project. The beautiful mountains and view from the top of Midtsæterfjellet was of course a bonus too.

“It was quite fun to film this music video. Absolutely magical. Wish I had my downhill skis with me so that I could ride down again» – SJUR.

Odin is captain of the Norwegian national men’s gymnastics team and won the Nordic championship in 2018. When asked how important music if for him whilst training he shares that it would be impossible for him to go through a long training session without it. It’s the first time he takes part in a music video and gets to share his passion accompanied by music in this way.

“The shoot went very well! It was fun to see how professional the set up was. The gymnastic turn that I managed at the end of the video is a piece that is very stressful on the body and I only had a few in me. I’m excited that it turned out the exact way I wanted it too” – Odin Kalvø.

JESSIA – I’m not Pretty
(Video)

“Many of us spend time thinking about their appearance and in fact, aren’t satisfied with the way they look like. Rejection doesn’t help and only if you accept yourself, you can move towards improvement. This is the message we get from Jessia via her playful single “I’m not Pretty”. Sharing some unexpected fun with her good sound too.”

-Nagamag.com

After turning a short TikTok video shot in her car into an empowering body acceptance anthem with over 70 million streams, Vancouver -based pop singer and songwriter JESSIA shares the music video for her breakthrough anthem “I’m not Pretty” today via Artist Driven Records/Republic Records.

http://jessia.lnk.to/imnotpretty

In the visual, JESSIA steps through the looking glass to confront her insecurities in a playful and tongue-in-cheek kind of way and falls down a rabbit hole into an imaginary yet cinematic eye-popping peach filled wonderland inspired by Roald Dahl’s ‘James and The Giant Peach’. The video illuminates the rising artist’s fun and quirky persona, which is as infectious as the song itself.

On shooting the video for “I’m not Pretty” JESSIA says, “Filming the music video was such a surreal experience. I kept looking around set and asking myself, ‘are all of these people here for me and my song? What? Am I really here right now? What a time. It was such a party on set! SUCH A BLAST!”

“I’m not Pretty” initially exploded on Tik Tok when JESSIA introduced an acapella hook of the song by sharing, “I don’t know if this is total trash, or if it’s actually a bop.” Turns out, it was the latter as the clip racked up 1 million views in a day. The candid lyrics describe a journey towards self-love and the emotions one can feel while on its path – a message that has instantly resonated with audiences all over the world. Since January 1st, the clip has accumulated 100 million views, while the official version produced by 4x JUNO Award nominee, singer, songwriter, and producer elijah woods has cracked 43 million Spotify streams as she averages 5.3 million monthly listeners on the platform.

In addition to early support from international tastemakers, Grammy award winning singer, songwriter, and producer Ryan Tedder personally reached out to JESSIA upon hearing the song to champion her work and collaborate. Together they are putting the finishing touches on new music—due out soon.

Silvia Nita – Vulnerable
(Video)

“If you believe in love and independent feelings and you’re not afraid to be vulnerable in a stream of emotions, the song -Vulnerable- is just for you. Atmospheric, crystal electro & dream pop sound, with a dreamy and slightly aspiration vocal touch of -Silvia Nita-.”

“Если вы верите в любовь и независимость чувств и не боитесь быть уязвимыми в потоке из чувств, то песня -Vulnerable- для вас. Атмосферное, кристальное звучание electro & dream pop и мечтательный, с лёгким придыханием вокал -Silvia Nita-.”

-Nagamag.com

“Vulnerable” describes the common fear of falling in love. The story is inspired by a dating stage where the desire for emotional attachment conflicts with the need to be independent. The bittersweet feeling of this journey is musically enriched by the alternation of electric guitar with violin, all on a steady electronic beat. This gives the song a dream pop/nostalgic vibe, being perfect to be listened to at night, when travelling or taking the time to reflect on life.

https://www.instagram.com/silvia_nita_

Silvia Nita is a singer-songwriter from Bucharest, Romania. Aged 21, she decided to take her passion and work with music to another level, debuting with the song “Vulnerable”. The single hints to the music style that is currently closest to her heart – pop, with some almost dark, dreamy influences. Silvia promises to only create and share music that resonates with her soul, whilst hoping to capture the pulse of society, especially the youth.

R3HAB, Jolin Tsai – Stars Align (with Jolin Tsai)
(Spotify)

“If you hear the melody of -Stars Align- once, you will never forget it. Sizzling rhythms of EDM by -R3HAB- and expressive vocals from -Jolin Tsai-.”

“Мелодия -Stars Align- одна из тех, которую услышав единожды не забудешь никогда. Обжигающие ритмы EDM от -R3HAB- и выразительный вокал -Jolin Tsai-. ”

-Nagamag.com

https://orcd.co/makethestarsalign

R3HAB and Mandopop superstar Jolin Tsai team up for their new single "Stars Align," a fusion of R3HAB's signature electronic sound and Jolin's Chinese pop, presented and featured during PUBGM's 3rd-anniversary celebrations. As the mobile version of the PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS game with over 50M daily active users globally, PUBGM reaches a vast global audience, and R3HAB himself played an in-game live set, especially for its players, and participated in a special celebrity showmatch, alongside famous gaming influencers from regions around the world, which you can watch here. "Stars Align" pulls its upbeat melodies and undulating basslines from R3HAB's dynamic style, while Jolin's stunning vocals lend an ethereal and emotive element to the song. It follows R3HAB's recent singles "Distant Memory" with Timmy Trumpet and W&W, "Ringtone" with Fafaq and DNF, "Fendi" with Rakhim & Smokepurpp, as well as a stream of official remixes for the likes of Demi Lovato, Alan Walker, to name a few.

"I'm always looking to push boundaries and explore different genres. Jolin feels the same way and has been a pioneer in Mandopop. It's energizing for me to work with artists who know the sky's the limit, and "Stars Align" is a nod to that shared vision. I'm a long-time player of PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS, so being able to share the song with this community is an honor. I hope this song is a lucky star for all the players, listeners, and fans enjoying it." - R3HAB

Dutch/Moroccan DJ and producer Fadil El Ghoul, better known as R3HAB, has been trailblazing his way through dance music for the better part of the last decade. From his breakthrough hit remix of Afrojack, Pitbull and Ne-Yo's "Give Me Everything" to his dance anthems, such as "All Around The World (La La La)" and "Lullaby," which have collectively amassed over 600M streams, to his collaborations with the likes of ZAYN, Andy Grammer, Sofia Carson, Olivia Holt and more, R3HAB has proven to be one of the most talented and forward-thinking artists in the game. He partnered with Spotify and GATTÜSO to create the first-ever official "mint" single release. In 2016 he founded his label CYB3RPVNK, which passed one billion streams on its catalog within the first two years since its inception. R3HAB himself continues to evolve and diversify his sound by working with a variety of artists around the globe, experimenting with everything from hip-hop to pop through his collaborations. With his combination of innate artistry and innovative attitude, in 2021 R3HAB is continuing his journey among electronic music's elite.

Jolin Tsai placed herself firmly on the Chinese pop culture map with her wildly popular 2014 album "PLAY," which won "Best Mandarin Album" at the Golden Melody Awards. In 2017, "MUSE" officially made her the best-selling Chinese female singer. Tsai's impressive resume includes 13 studio albums, 19 years of professional music career, dozens of millions of sold albums/singles, numerous awards; she is also a fashion designer and has worked with brands such as Coach, Fendi and more. She has been featured on the cover of Marie Claire, Bazaar, Grazia, Vogue, Zine Mag, So Figaro, and Nylon.

PUBG MOBILE is based on PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS, the phenomenon that took the world of interactive entertainment by storm in 2017. Up to 100 players parachute onto a remote island to battle in a winner-takes-all showdown. Players must locate and scavenge their own weapons, vehicles, and supplies, and defeat every player in a visually and tactically rich battleground that forces players into a shrinking play zone.

Arden Jones – Parallel Parking
(Video)

-Nagamag.com

https://vnclm.fanlink.to/parallelparking

QUOTE

“While ‘Parallel Parking’ is undoubtedly a love story, I also wanted to express my gratitude for everything I have going well in my life and hopefully emit and spread positivity through my music.”

-Arden Jones

“Parallel Parking”

On the surface, the upbeat car-themed track perfectly captures the feeling of infatuation and excitement in a new potential love interest and budding relationship, but beyond the lyrics, Arden aims to spread positivity through his illuminating outlook on life and undeniably infectious energy.

The music video offers a new perspective to the narrative, with Arden playing the seemingly unimportant and background role of a golf caddy while his love interest clearly isn’t being treated right. The vibrant visual accompaniment offers a triumphant, happy resolve and a pleasantly surprising role reversal, ending with the love interest handing him his car keys instead as they happily walk off into the sunset together.

BIOGRAPHY

Meet Arden Jones, the 19 year old Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and rapper. The Bay Area area native grew up around a multitude of seasoned musicians and listening to hip-hop on heavy rotation. Jones cultivated his musical talents while singing for various bands, which inevitably led to his impassioned pursuit of recording music at the young age of 16. Shortly after moving to Los Angeles for college, he dropped out to pursue music full-time once he signed with management. Jones combines his youthful vocals with keys and guitar, focusing on bringing a new and modern take to music, while keeping it something your mom and dad would still bump.

Arden considers Mac Miller and Rex Orange County to be significant influences on his musical style and strives to capture the feel-good sound of indie music and bedroom pop, all the while cultivating his own sonic landscape.

GOLDHOPE – You & I
(Spotify)

“Are you a social person or you prefer to walk alone? A song that gives emphasis to the benefits of a good company in our life. Soulful lyrics and elegant singing with alterantive electronic soundscapes. The hope we need to overcome obstacles, to keep going on and on.”

-Nagamag.com

You & I was written about the battle we often feel within ourselves, those unrelenting anxieties that can feel so alien and confusing to who we really are. It lives inside a part of your mind you don’t really understand, that doesn’t serve to help you in any way but thrives on making itself known at the most inconvenient of times, without invitation. This song is about facing that voice in your head, calling it out and realising that it does not define or control you, and knowing that you can break free from it.

https://www.instagram.com/goldhopemusic

GOLDHOPE are an ethereal alt-pop duo from North London comprising of members Zelah Van-Gowler and Elliot Neale. Encapsulating a distinctive blend of moody, raw and electronic soundscapes with soulful vocals and a focus on sultry, introspective lyrics, there is an all-encompassing range of human emotion and feeling to be found within the music. Prominent influences include BANKS, London Grammar and Sharon Van Etten.

The pair met whilst studying at university, with Zelah a keen writer and solo artist, and Elliot a budding lead guitarist and producer, and, having experimented with different sounds and projects of their own over the years, including their previous joint project under the name ZELAH, the two are now further refining their identity as collaborative artists in 2021 under their new name GOLDHOPE.

They are set to kickstart the year with their sophomore EP ‘Divided’ due for release in May, in the hope to build upon their previous successes in 2020 which saw them support Asgier at Shepherds Bush Empire back in February, and their debut EP ‘I’ receiving pick up from BBC Introducing in Cambridgeshire, CLASH mag and Spotify’s Alt.Pop and New Pop UK playlists.

andreas owens – falling & falling
(Spotify)

“How many times have we felt falling? But we should realize that after a fall, we can only stand up. "falling & falling" describes the difficulty to control passions and obsessions. A meaningful song, which can give back the lost courage to move up again.”

-Nagamag.com

MARCH 19TH, 2021 – Los Angeles-based producer and singer-songwriter andreas owens releases his sophomore single, “falling & falling”, an experimental alternative pop track that samples The Millennial Club’s single, “If You Stay”, and is about our societal addiction to our phones and technology. The song follows the release of his incredibly lauded debut single, “don’t feel happy ◡̈”, which was well-received by outlets like DUMMY Mag, Substream Magazine, and We Found New Music, and landed on Spotify’s editorial playlists: Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds: Pop, and Study Break.

https://soundcloud.com/andreasowensmp3/falling-and-falling/s-BOs35Dwqt8N

“falling & falling”

Though the song has a pop-inspired exterior, underneath it all shines a gutsy surge of unabashed realism. A commentary on society’s addiction to social media and the Internet, andreas owens has crafted an irresistible pop shell with a helpless, all-too-relatable core. Being at the mercy of our own desires, it reveals, on every level, our 21st century disposition to spend more time on our phones than with our friends and family.

Another major theme in the track is the idea of seeing things on our phones that we wish we hadn’t. There’s a sad truth behind the realistic and modern limits to which we can protect our souls. At the end of the day, it’s something we brought upon ourselves due to our learned obsessive nature for attention and social engagement, and while at times it can be beneficial, it too often isn’t.

QUOTES

“The concept behind ‘falling & falling’ alludes to our collective (and my own) societal addiction to our phones. I remember having a conversation with my friends about how we all kinda want to be on our phones less, but still sadly just find ourselves ‘crawling back’ to them every single day. I think we’ve all had similar thoughts, wondering, ‘omfg how is it possible that I’ve been scrolling through TikTok and Instagram for two hours?’”

“Oftentimes, while it’s enjoyable to catch up on friends’ lives and see what they’re up to, these days, I feel like half the time I don’t even like doing that anymore because I’ve created such a negative relationship with social media and the online space. The Internet is more relevant now than it’s ever been, and ‘falling & falling’ is a screenshot of my relationship with it.”

Preethevibes – Like Flies
(Spotify)

“Preethevibes with his new single - Like Flies - into VA Records/PARA Aris imprint please us once more with his solid harmonic vibes and his raucous, wide, sensural vocals.”

-Nagamag.com

Preethevibes opens this song with a cry for social justice in Dance Hall fashion. Jamaican producer Jungle Ratt partners with the group for this Dance Hall anthem against police violence and international injustice. The single is geared to hit Jamaican airwaves within the next month.

https://www.instagram.com/preethevibes/

A combination of heart, mind, body & soul, Preethevibes consists of bandmates PARA, KNGLVN, JUS-Q and MILIO. The NYC based indie group emerges out of a multi-cultured melting pot of sound and visuals, combining the foundations of Jamaican Dance Hall and Ghanaian based Afrobeats with the electronic dance culture of NYC’s Lower East Side.

Their "go against the grain" attitude and defiant vocal styles create the perfect recipe for unheard, undiscovered musical patterns and ear-bending audiences.

The group continues to compose and collaborate as an independent entity, releasing projects such as their debut singles "Good Good", "Get Down" and "New Day". The four man band persists to make an impact on the independent scene as they plan the release of their debut EP.
